wala lang
Nakakapanibago 'tong weekend na 'to. wala akong magawa. tapos na kasi viz class. sa sobrang bored ko, tumambay kami ni panny sa eastwood, gumala-gala. one interesting thing that i found in national bookstore is the lonely planet english-chinese conversation guide. i'm glad i can still read some words in the correct accent. but i didn't buy the book. i was thinking of searching for saturday chinese lessons, probably in chang kai shek college. wala lang. so instead, i splurged on a pair of nike chinelas. actually, yung black version nun ang gusto ko. but it's already out of stock 6 months ago. now that i found a grayish/purlish pair, with my size and slightly on sale, binili ko na. grabe, 2 days kong salary yun. pero oks lang, tamang-tama panny discovered that my favorite pair of chinelas-looking sandals worth 150 php that i abused for about 5 months is already damaged. so that's a good reason to buy a new favorite regular tsinelas.
twice this week, i went to see the bading hired to do the gowns for my cousin's wedding. it was a wednesday night when i dragged myself to that store near wilson st. nagkasunog somewhere, so i have to take the side streets to get there. as expected, i got lost. i ended up driving along shaw (may shaw portion na malapit pala sa san juan) then i passed by a place called mandaluyong cockpit. i went back to the side streets and tried to figure out how to get back to wilson. good thing that when i got back, fire trucks were already leaving and i can freely take my normal route. then came friday. my cousin texted me that i fitted the wrong gown. kaya pala sobrang weird ng fit, sobrang sikip sa back and di swak sa boobs. so i had to go back this morning to try on my real gown. kakaasar talaga, sayang sa time, effort and gas. di naman cool yung damit. parang fan-like yung upper part tapos may tali na halter. and kuripot nila sa beads, halos wala. pati yung gown ng cousin ko, super konti lang ng beads for a wedding dress.
last thursday, i went to mcdonald's katipunan to meet a friend. while observing those high school and college kids hangin' around, i felt how cool it was to be a student, where life's problems are so unreal. there i was, wearing my office get up, feeling so old around everyone younger than me. nakakasenti yung mga days when that place is my territory.
